Customer Reviews
Great Podcast
Hello everyone!
I’d like to tell you that your podcast has not only been successful in the US and in English speaking countries... I’m listening this from Brazil and it has been great!
I’m writing my PhD on screenwriting and emotional impact on viewers and I cannot tell you how grateful I feel to have discovered the youtube channel and the podcast. Great work everyone. Thanks for this!

West Side Story’s Sorkinisms
I was merrily driving upstate in Rio de Janeiro, listening to the West Side Story episode when I had to stop—I repeat, I had to stop—to barf after listening that the code-switching dialogue was melodic LIKE AARON SORKIN’s. Luckily I was driving by an eucalyptus farm. I took a gulp of that fresh minty air, turn off the episode and drove away into the night.
Inspiring
I’m loving this podcast so far!
I’m a screenwriter and it has been very inspiring experience to listen to you guys on my way to work!
Thank you Michael & team for all the lessons!
